About Hammerknuden
Hammerknuden (also Hammeren — "hammerhead-shaped crag of granite") is the protected granite promontory at the northern tip of Bornholm, and the island's most popular climbing venue. The Danish Nature Agency officially recommends four climbing sites here — two at Lindesdal on the western face and two at Opalsøen near the old quarry lake. Rock is the same Precambrian Bornholm golden granite as Vang, but the promontory position gives fuller Baltic exposure. North-west aspect means the wall is in shade most of the day with evening light — good friction, cooler feel on warm summer days. Coastal flag applies for onshore-wind spray warnings. Weather shared with Vang via anchor.
